Birth Doula Support

"My goal as your birth doula is to provide you with information, emotional, physical, and spiritual support, tools to help you with your informed decision making and to empower you in your own healing or advocacy during pregnancy, birth, and early postpartum."

As your birth doula, Alyssa...

💜 Supports women's physiological response in preparation for birth

💜 Assesses for clients body alignment and suggests movements or exercises to prepare for labor and birth

💜 Facilitates a mindful acceptance of discomfort and the unknown

💜 Helps you learn and work through your fears about birth or postpartum

💜 Builds a trustworthy support team

💜 Decompress, process, and heal from birth

​

According to the American Pregnancy Association, having a doula during your birth decreases cesarean rate by 50%, the length of labor by 25%, the use of oxytocin by 40%, and requests for epidurals by 60%!

 

Having a non-clinical support person with you who is committed to knowing you over several prenatal visits and phone calls (or texts or FaceTime, etc.), what you value, why you choose the things that you choose, and your emotional and physical history will help you feel comfortable and empowered in your birthing environment.  

 

We have an extensive knowledge base of information and skills to help reduce the perceived pain of labor (whether you choose pain medication or not) and positions and techniques to try when labor has stalled.

 

Birthers are less likely to request medical pain relief options or when that request is delayed, the risks of interventions are decreased or eliminated, thus improving birth outcomes.

Birth Doula Packages Starting at $1,988

Studies show that women who prepare for their labor and birth have a better experience, lower rates of intervention, and better outcomes!

Doula at Home

Sydney D.

"Alyssa was absolutely integral to my dream birth! First, our prenatal appointments were wonderful. She met us at our home, and made sure to thoroughly teach us techniques and preparations for birth. Her handouts and online portal made it easy to reference what we discussed. She was also very available and responsive throughout my pregnancy if I had any questions or concerns as I experienced new symptoms as a first-time mom."
